How much money, as a one-time deposit, PV, would you need to deposit into an account that earns 1.5% compounded monthly to earn
Karolina [17]

Answer:

The amount needed as a one-time deposit to earn $7,500 in 3 years is <em>$4388.17</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Basic Finance Formulas </u>

One of the most-used formulas to compute present and future values is

FV=PV(1+r)^{n}

Where FV is the future value, PV is the present value, r is the interest rate and n is the number of periods. It's vital to keep in mind that r and n must be referred to the same compounded time, e.g. r is compounded monthly and n is expressed in months

The question requires to compute the PV needed as a one-time deposit to earn a future value of $7,500 in 3 years at a 1.5% rate compounded monthly.

FV=7,500

r=1.5%=0.015

n=3*12=36 months

We converted n to months because r is compounded monthly . The formula

FV=PV(1+r)^{n}

must be managed to make PV isolated

PV=FV(1+r)^{-n}

PV=7,500(1+0.015)^{-36}

PV=\$4388.17

Answer: The amount needed as a one-time deposit to earn $7,500 in 3 years is $4388.17

Prove that a line that divides two sides of a triangle proportionally is parallel to the third side. Be sure to create and name
sattari [20]

Answer:

Given: A triangle ABC and a line DE parallel to BC.

To prove: A line parallel to one side of a triangle divides the other two sides proportionally.

Proof: Consider ΔABC and DE be the line parallel to Bc, then from ΔABC and ΔADE, we have

∠A=∠A (Common)

∠ADE=∠ABC (Corresponding angles)

Thus, by AA similarity, ΔABC is similar to ΔADE, therefore

AB/AD= AC/AE

⇒AD+DB/AD = AE+EC/AE

⇒1+DB/AD = 1+ EC/AE

⇒DB/AD = EC/AE

Therefore, a line parallel to one side of a triangle divides the other two sides proportionally.

⇒Therefore Proved

Hope this helps!!!

Weight of a rock: In a geology course, students are learning to use a balance scale to accurately weigh rocks. One student plans
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

The student who weighted the rock 5 times has a 95% confidence interval of (25.2, 29.1) which is guaranteed to be more wider (less precise) than the other student who weighted the rock 20 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

What is Confidence Interval?

The confidence interval represents an interval that we can guarantee that the target variable will be within this interval for a given confidence level.  

The confidence interval is given by

CI = \bar{x} + t_{\alpha/2}(\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } ) \\

Where \bar{x} is the mean weight \sigma is the standard deviation t_{\alpha/2} is the critical value from t-table and n is the sample size.

The term t_{\alpha/2}(\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } ) is known as margin of error.

As the sample size is decreased the corresponding margin of error increases which results in wider confidence interval which means smaller precision.

The student who weighted the rock 5 times has a 95% confidence interval of (25.2, 29.1) which is guaranteed to be more wider (less precise) than the other student who weighted the rock 20 times.

We can say with 95% confidence that the true mean weight of the rock is within the interval of (25.2, 29.1).

The base of a triangle in which a=58.5 in^2 height=9
Nuetrik [128]
Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height
a = 58.5 
height = 9

58.5 = 1/2 x base x 9
58.5 = 4.5 x base
base = 13

joanne cannot decide which of two washing machines to buy. The selling price of each is ​$660. The first is marked down by ​40%.
Alexxx [7]

Answer: The first machine would cost $420

and the second machine would cost $432

you should buy the first machine

Step-by-step explanation:If you get a 30% discount, then you are paying 70% of the selling price.

Machine 1:  600(.70) = 420

Machine 2:  A 10% discount means you pay 90%

600(.90) = 540   But now you get a 20% discount on that amount, which means you would pay 80%

So, 540(.80) = 432
